Dead Pedal

Just make sure it doesn't pop off and fall behind the brake petal blocking its use.  

Is that a Dr Scholls gas pedal?

Wrap it in the same carpet and it'll blend in. I like it. I find my seating position changes throughout my drives. How do you like having a spot for your left foot?

Ryan,  good idea I will ask justin where I can get some carpet pieces.  Love not having to lay my leg on the floor.  Probably will move the pedal a bit further forward (if I can get it off!!

Thanks

Lord knows I have tried all sources I know to get a cover for the accelerator pedal, none have fit.  If a VS owner with the same pedal has a source, please let me know.  

Thanks

I couldn't resist the joke.

At least you can have a dead pedal. My feet are too damn big, so there is no room for one in my car, and my right foot has to be without a shoe when I drive my car.

There is a wide pedal assembly available that seperates the clutch from the brake by a lot and then if you were to be including a roller type accelerator pedal that might help you other than that a pair of cucumber stabbers might help uhhh... I mean cowboy boots they might reach in there to handle the pedal work.

Why not undo the carpet from the wall and place a plexiglass plate behind it and use Chicago screws to hold the pedal exactly where you want it and that way with the velcro as well as the plate with screws will be so solid nothing will ever move once the whole thing is properly held on the wall.   You also will have no body holes  

No body piercings means no future regrets ... now I should tell my kids that  

I stepped on that flimsy plastic pedal too hard and broke it. I'm stock everywhere else, but I couldn't resist these pedals. 

Nice Pedals, where did you buy them?

I usually drive barefoot.

Those can usually be found on ebay. They just screw to the factory pedals.

@Carlos

Those pedals are made by OMP. I have a set, forgotten whom from I purchased. One of the racing parts sites.  OMP makes helmets, suits etc.

One thing I like about them is, strip the rubber VW pads off and I was able to offset the brake and clutch pedals, when I drilled the holes to mount these, for a better fit.

I learned the hard way driving bare foot...had to slam the brakes on....my right foot was bruised and painful for several days.

If it's the standard Vintage gas pedal Empi makes the rubber pedal cover and you can get them anywhere. 

I'm thinking that it probably isn't because you probably already know about the Empi covers.

They take a little bit of stretching to get them on, but not much.

If you drive barefoot you need Will’s foam pedal coversto safe your feet

or you can ask hoim for that fishing lure jelly it might help as well. 

ok.  it says billet aluminum.  in truth, it's probably like my shop class where we cast stuff in clay.  http://www2.cip1.com/ProductDe...de=C23%2DAC735%2D000

you can't tell from the picture.  The chicks don't care either.

That's a good price. And I just ordered something else from them (CIP1)  placed the order Sunday and it arrived Tuesday morning 

our Hotpad for bassboat foot throttles, might fit our cars...

Yeah, but then I'll be tempted to drive 80MPH down country roads while not worrying about leaves and dust kicked up along the way, then stop and throw out a line.

Will, Can you send me a "Trump" size supply of fishing lure jelly?  I might need it at shows....

I have the CIP ones - they are indeed cast but they have great grip on you shoes and they look nice.

I only drive my speedy barefoot!
